We’re reaching out with an urgent update and a call to action.
On Monday, the Supreme Court issued a shocking decision in Vasquez Perdomo v. Noem, allowing immigration agents to conduct roving immigration raids and stops — even when race is a central factor in their decision to detain someone. This ruling threatens to normalize racial profiling and undermines the constitutional protections that should apply to all of us, regardless of race or immigration status.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor, in her powerful dissent, warned: “We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent.”
